Su Wei couldn't give an accurate answer as to whether Madam Bao was the one who attacked Mrs. Xu.Logically speaking, it shouldn't be her.But is she really that frank?

Su Luo didn't believe it.Mammy Bao cares so much about Mrs. Xie and their siblings, so even if Xie Yun is a serious person, wouldn't she have to find a way to get in touch with Mrs. Xie's family?Earlier, when Su Wei mentioned why the Xie family did not come to the Su family again, Madam Bao only said that Xie Yun liked to scold people, but she never said why the Xie family had any reason to cut off contact with them.

But Su Luo is not in a hurry.Isn't Su Shou investigating the murderer?If it turns out that Nanny Bao did it, it will prove that Nanny Bao is lying. There should be an unspeakable secret between her and the Xie family.And if it wasn't her, then this person must be related to the murderer who hurt Xie.In terms of case investigation, Su Shou must be better than him, and maybe he has more clues.She just needs to wait and see.

So after Yin Lan and Cai Ling came back from Su Shou that day, she just casually asked about the process and didn't ask any more questions.

For the next two days, the main courtyard was also very peaceful.Since Wu Sheng went to work in the shop as an errand, he had more contacts with Su's shop.He found a new lock pattern recently produced by Tiangongfang, and Su Luo frowned after seeing it in her hand.It is said that it is a new lock, but in fact it is a change of soup but not medicine.The same type of lock cylinder has been used by the Su family for at least four or fifty years.If it goes on like this, how long can Tiangongfang maintain its reputation?
Having nothing to do, I found Su Qi, threw these pictures to him, and asked him to think about other ways to make innovations.

This is when I was writing and drawing on the picture with a pen, Mu Jin walked in quickly: "Something happened in the backyard! The little maid Linglong who was in charge of making tea in the main courtyard threw herself into the well!"

The pen in Su Luo's hand suddenly drew a mark on the paper. "Why throw the well?"

Mu Jin walked over and sat down on the footstool in front of her: "Master has found out, and the poison that poisoned my wife has been thrown into the flowers in his room, and the vase of flowers is placed next to the brocade couch where my wife usually sits and rests." side!"

"... What kind of flower is it?"

"Peony! It's the peony sent by our courtyard!" When I said this, my throat was a little tight, "The main courtyard seemed to be calm these two days, but it turned out that the master didn't relax at all. I came to investigate the places and everything my wife had been to that day, and finally found out that the poison was thrown into the flower. The poison powder hidden in the stamen was scattered on my wife because of walking, collision and wind blowing outside the window. In the teacup, and in the dim sum on the kang table, so I got tricked like this!"

"Then why did it find out that it was Linglong's hands?"

Since the flowers were sent by them, shouldn't the people from Qiyuyuan be the most suspicious?Could it be that Nanny Bao murdered her to silence her?
"Because the flowers sent by our yard were poisonous not only on that day. In the vases that were used before, it was found that there were residual poisons.

"It's not that the flowers are sent by people from our courtyard every time, but Linglong picks the flowers at the gate of the courtyard and brings them to the house every time.

"So Linglong's suspicion is greater than the suspicion of the people in our courtyard."

Su Luo frowned: "This does not prove that she must be the murderer."

"But two days before the accident, my wife reprimanded Linglong who made a mistake. Linglong and one of his cousins ​​were childhood sweethearts, but his cousin was idle, ignorant, often gambled outside, and then came to Linglong to borrow money.

"How much money does Linglong have as a second-class girl? It was discovered by Gingko a few days ago that she embezzled the monthly fee that his wife gave her to be distributed in the Zhuangzi. She was expelled, and the wife took pity on her, and after rewarding her with a board, she was still kept, but her money was confiscated.

"Who would have thought that she still hated her wife, told people behind her back that she was mean, and even cursed her. These words are all testified."

Su Luo was speechless.

Mu Jin sighed, and continued: "Didn't the master find out the clues yesterday, and today I got the evidence and asked someone to take her, but when she heard the news, she threw herself into the well out of fear."

Su Ruoteng stood up: "I don't believe there is such a coincidence!"

Mu Jin also stood up: "It's true, everyone is in the main courtyard now!"

Su Luo stopped talking to him and stepped out of the threshold.

At the gate of the main courtyard, a large group of people gathered here, and people from each room have already arrived, of course, those who are particularly young are not counted.

There was a wet corpse spread out on the ground. She didn't know the posture in which she threw it into the well. She clenched her fists and clasped them to her chest.His face was turned to one side, his mouth was slightly open.There are varying degrees of abrasions on the face and exposed hands and feet.

Su Shou's face was gloomy and cold: "Who made the wind of walking that she heard?"

Dozens of people in the audience were silent.Xu's face was pale, she landed firmly on Linglong on the ground and muttered, "Why is she so stupid? Why is she so stupid?"

Standing beside her, Chang said bitterly: "My sister-in-law has not long been in charge of Zhongfu. I don't know that some slaves have become tricky. Only you can't think of it, and they can't do it without them. Like this kind of evil slave who dares to attack the master, Let her escape, it is really cheap for her!"

Xu shook her head: "Not at all."

Her eyes were dark, making it impossible to see whether she thought that Linglong would not harm her, or that Linglong would not commit suicide.

Su Luo took a deep breath: "What is the evidence for her poisoning? Who heard her cursing her wife behind her back?"

Standing on the other side, Mrs. Huang raised her head and said, "It was Nanny Lin who heard it. Two nights earlier, Nanny Lin went back to her residence to rest in the backyard and heard her talking to Chunxiu in Dongkua courtyard. "

After she finished speaking, she looked at Nanny Lin who was standing in the crowd.

Nanny Lin hurriedly stood up: "Returning to the girl, that's exactly the case. At that time, the servant woman was accompanied by the fifth sister-in-law who was sweeping the floor in the main courtyard! She can also testify!
"At that time, the servant girl was very angry, but the fifth sister-in-law said that this girl is also quite pitiful, don't rush to expose her, and wait until she turns around to reprimand her.

"The maid also agreed!

"Who knew that something like this would happen within two days!"

Nanny Lin is from Huang's house, and Su Wei is also very familiar with her.Then he asked: "After the wife was poisoned, why didn't the nanny tell you in time?"

"I dare not say it, but I went to find the fifth sister-in-law that night. You can ask her to see if I'm telling the truth!"

Following her gaze, Su Luo saw another woman plopping down on her knees.

"Girl, spare your life! This servant didn't know that such a big thing would happen, let alone that the murderer was Linglong! If she knew that she really had the guts, I wouldn't dare to hide it with a hundred courage!"
